  1. Types, Properties and Grades of Asphalt-Part B

  2. PG Specifications • Fundamental properties related to pavement performance • Environmental factors • In-service & construction temperatures • Short and long term aging

  3. Superpave Asphalt Binder Specification The grading system is based on Climate PG 64 - 22 Min pavement temperature Performance Grade Average 7-day max pavement temperature

  4. SHRP A-648A Temperatures > 20 years • Superpave Weather Database • 6500 stations in U.S. and Canada • Annual air temperatures • hottest seven-day temp (avg and std dev) • coldest temp (avg and std dev) • Calculated pavement temps used in PG selection: • High temperature • 20 mm below the surface of mixture • Low temperature • at surface of mixture Pave temp = f (air temp, depth, latitude)

  20. Permanent Deformation Addressed by: G*/sin d on unaged binder > 1.00 kPa G*/sin d on RTFO aged binder > 2.20 kPa For the early part of the service life

  21. Permanent Deformation Question: Why a minimum G*/sin d to address rutting Answer: We want a stiff, elastic binder to contribute to mix rutting resistance How: By increasing G* or decreasing d

  22. Fatigue BBR RV DSR

  23. Fatigue Cracking Function of repeated traffic loads over time (in wheel paths)

  24. Testing • Aged binder • Since long term performance problem, include: • Short term aging • Long term aging • Determine DSR parameters using 8 mm plate and intermediate test temperature

  25. Pressure Aging Vessel(Long Term Aging) • Simulates aging of an asphalt binder for 7 to 10 years • 50 gram sample is aged for 20 hours • Pressure of 2,070 kPa (300 psi) • At 90, 100 or 110 C

  28. Fatigue Cracking • G* (sin d) on RTFO and PAV aged binder • The parameter addresses the later part of the fatigue life • Value must be < 5000 kPa

  29. Fatigue Cracking • Question: Why amaximumG* sin d to address fatigue? Answer: We want a soft elastic binder (to sustain many loads without cracking) How: By decreasing G* or decreasing d

  36. Is Stiffness Enough? • No. Need to assess strain needed to break specimen. • Thermal cracking occurs when strain is too great • Direct tension test • Currently (1998) in specification • New equipment is now available
